Does the install actually see the physical nic? Could it possibly
be loading the wrong driver for it? Before you go into software hunting
mode, I always check hardware drivers first, make sure they're there and
are correct. I'd check /var/log/dmesg see what it says regarding the card.
And not to burst your bubble, but I just installed FC6 on a
relatively old machine that has 3 Intel nics in it (one dual and one
single.) Just a breeze...configured all three, rebooted and there they
were. I'm running updates right now. By golly, I'll be going home
early today.
